We are saddened to hear of the passing of Jim Schultz, who died this July of complications from brain cancer. Jim was a 1993 Fellow in the June Seminar for Younger Poets. He attended the University of Iowa from 1993-1995, and served two years in Uzbekistan with the Peace Corps. After his initial diagnosis and treatment, Jim attained a teaching position at the American University in Cairo, Egypt. We extend our deepest sympathy to Jim's family.
